ZT Hinderer Carbon Fiber Knife 0566CF

Share this:

The 0566CF may look classy with its new carbon fiber front scale, but don’t let the good looks fool you. The 0566CF, designed by Rick Hinderer, offers the same beast-like, ZT-tough build and precision features as the 0566; it just looks gentlemanly doing it.

The blade is high-performance ELMAX® powdered steel. With almost no impurities in the steel, the 0566CF’s blade can be sharpened to hair-popping levels with excellent edge retention.

SpeedSafe® assisted opening makes it quick and easy to open, while a steel frame lock with lockbar stabilizer provides secure lockup. Finally, ZT’s quad-mount, deep-carry pocketclip means you can carry this handsome beast any way you want.

Customer Reviews

I loved the design of this knife but had a problem reliably deploying the blade. There detent and ball holding the blade in its close position was a little too difficult to overcome without hurting my finger. Perhaps some gimping on the flipper would have helped, nevertheless I ended up returning this knife in favor of the slightly larger version... Zero Tolerance 0562CF Hinderer Slicer Knife which is much easier to deploy thanks to the ball bearing pivot system and just as solid.
